The soul songstress thinks gangsta rap was invented by a bunch of white dudes in Washington, D.C. to destroy the black community:
Keys, 27, said the violent hip-hop style was an anti-black conspiracy. The American, who has sold 25 million albums worldwide, believes the government encouraged the 1990s murders of rappers TUPAC SHAKUR and NOTORIOUS B.I.G.
She told a magazine: “The murders were fuelled to stop a great black leader from existing.”
